I've seen this movie................ IT DOESN'T END WELL!.....................

One wonders if certain members of Congress escaped from this lab.

The basis of most morally sound ethics say that “the ends do not justify the use of any means”.

Sometimes science has to be told it has to, morally, take a different route to discovery of scientific questions, for moral and ethical reasons.

We are civilized societies BECAUSE we do not believe the ends justify the means (G-d tells us they don’t), that moral reasons alter the means that are accepted as justified.

“We are doing the experiments with monkeys in China because, in principle, they cannot be done here because of lack of infrastructure,”

As the world staggers back from the another Chinese laboratory experiment what could possibly go wrong doing human monkey experiments ?

Big foot nods

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Hmmm. Synthetic urbans.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

In nature such things automatically self abort with a miscarriage.

If two near species do develop to term the offspring is sterile.
Horse and donkey=sterile mule.
Cow and bison=sterile catalo.

The ancient Romans had a saying similar to our “When Pigs Fly”. It was “When a mule foals!”

I kind of half hoped the elon musk types would get enough people off the planet and wait out the destruction and repopulate. I think it is too late

Everybody who died, died
Everybody who died, died
Everybody who died, died
They all died.

Not always true. There are plenty of fertile crossbreeds, including the rare mule and the like.

This is, dangerous territory.

There are a couple of very specific mitzvah regarding chimera that probably apply here. I doubt the scholars say much yet bc the science is so new.

Abbie Normal??!? Mel Brooks tried to warn us

[SubMareener]

This is the “as in the Days of Noah” part of the prophecy.

[yuleeyahoo]

Ethically fraught science? Yes. Mad science? No Absolutely.

[Sirius Lee]

This is unfathomable evil. What a mocking of God’s Creation.

[Army Air Corps]

Yes, very dangerous territory.

[I want the USA back]
